Geofency - Time Tracking App Reviews

It’s been a lifesaver for me many times. I don’t know why this data is so hard to get out of the native location services in the iPhone, but this app lays it all out very clearly. My ADD brain really appreciates its reliability. Did I forget to clock in or out at work last week? I can see exactly what time I got there and what time I left. What was the exact date I was in such and such place? I can see it here. Great app!

I had downloaded this app yeaaaaaars ago and then had forgotten about it. I recently started to make some shortcuts to record my location on my calendar but fortunately I rediscovered Geofency! It saved me a ton of work, is more reliable and gives more useful information. I'm really happy to see that it is still being updated. Well done devs!

The title says it all. Need to be more reliable. @devs: happy to help root cause if interested.

… I’ve been having an issue and multiple emails to feedback@ and info@ have gone unanswered. Are you providing support for this app?

Please make the notes search-able. Please…..!!!.!!.!.!.!.!!.! Love the new live view ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ♥️

I’ve been using Geofency for about 12 years now. I needed an app to be able to automatically track when I got to work for documentation purposes - also to help me track how long it took me to get to work. I only needed that for a few months but left it on my phone and have used it sense. Being able to see when I leave the house or when I get to anywhere is so useful, and it even supports automations based on location. Such a powerful tool, I love it!

Is it merely presenting the location of the phone or is it collection location data independently from the watch?

For anyone who likes to fidget/fuss with Maps and their GPS locations…you’ll love this app. My primary use is for a presence sensor with my smart home as it replaces the need to keep app location on all the time (some apps don’t like this FYI) and save a ton of battery life. Ive had it on for over 3 years continuously with no noticeable impact to battery life and increased functionality with smart home = highly highly recommended!

I have been using this app for a while. So great to track your location consistently.

I’ve been using this app for years and wouldn’t be without it! The latest addition gives you the ability to manually select what locations show in live activities, fantastic! Having the current location in the live activity bubble makes it so easy to access Geofency just when you need it. Great update!

It’s been great since I’ve been using it, I recently noticed in an area with poor mobile service, a large home I’ve been working at appeared to have missing data, although I realized the system thought I was at two different locations at times…I adjusted the radius on when I turned on monitored location. Is there a way to merge the previous history of two locations into one?

I use this app to track my hours for work, so every time I go to one of my stores it tracks how long I've been there. The biggest problem that I have with this app is that it picks up moments where I'm driving past and not stepping into one of my locations. So there's a lot of entries into the database that shouldn't be there. I need a way to have like a two minute minimum for it to actually record that trip.

I’ve been using this app for many years and it continually improves. The only additional feature it needs for me is better isolation of nearby locations. The minimum monitoring radius is way too big compared to leaving everything automatic. I would use the Wi-Fi network and elevation as the way to isolate nearby addresses in towers or apartments.

Been using it for years and it works like a charm

Great, reliable time tracking, very customizable. Sits in the background doing its tracking with minimal battery usage and all of the data is there for me when I need it.

Great automatic tracking and log

Great private location tracking with minimal use of battery.

Perfect app for tracking multiple job site hours

Absolutely great app, visualizes time spent where and more.

It’s pretty intuitive to setup. Regions work quite well, especially for entry. I had to contact the developer as I was not getting entry/exit events for iBeacons, but that issue was resolved within 2 weeks. What I really like about this app is that can have automations based on presence, not tracking.

This app is exactly what I needed and I couldn’t have asked for something more perfect. It’s simple to use. I’m self employees and I know I lose money on time tracking because I’ve never been very good at it. I do my billing at the end of the month and I would forget to mark times I was at a client or I know I was there longer than I can remover clearly so I lose money. This fixes all of that. I don’t have to do anything special. Totally automatic when I arrive, when I leave. Print the report at

I would be helpless without this app.

And minimal battery use. Win/ Win!!

Great app! Trigger home automation events based on various family members location.

The app does more than just this, but the webhooks are fantastic for IoT apps. For example, I can set a monitored location with separate webhooks for arrive and leave. That can drive my presence-based automations. It’s proven to be very reliable.

The app resets to the monitor section and resets the time format to compact format. Please fix it. Thanks

Wife and I have used this for years and it works very reliably. Other similar apps seem to only work part of the time, but this detects fence each time we cross it. I can’t recommend this enough.

Very helpful in keeping account of time spent at a location.

This app is awesome! I have a hard time keeping track of how long whatever took, or when what was… Not only will this keep track of how long I spent where, it allows manual editing of "IN / OUT" events.

It’s a pretty cool app. Helps me with submitting my time card for work. Only thing I wish it would do is tell me how long I spend at undesignated places. That way I can monitor how long I spend in traffic or things like that.

Occasional problems w ur picking up movement to new locations. But better then other location trackers apps I have used. Also I prefer the UI to other apps. Please keep improving!!

Tells me where I’ve been and for how long; perfect for service billing. Awesome.

This application is terrific and has been consistently maintained for multiple years. It does its job very well and is great for triggering webhooks via geofence events directly from your device, without relying on a third-party cloud service.

I don’t write reviews very often, but this one needs one. It’s so easy, accurate and just so freaking awesome. The only thing is I wish I could put a short note on each one that’s entered. Thanks!

Works like a Charm! Money Well Spent!

Wish I found this years ago. It works perfect. Love the search function and being able to automatically track every stop.

Does exactly what I hoped. Been using this app for a few years now. Never failed me. Often I’ll forget some of the jobs I visited during the week, there’s so many, glance at this app and done!

Office politics. I use this tool to prove that I was working more than 40 hours a week.

I found this app in early 2018 and it lets me free my mind because I don't have to worry if I've written down when I left a client - or worse - found a sticky note with my times after it's been through the wash. Thank you!

Is there any way to add not monitored locations? It stops me at 20. I’m a security guard and my job is to drive payroll and I look over quite a few site. Adding more would definitely help me out!🙌🏽

After upgrading to iOS 13.2, the location issues with Geofency seem to have been fixed.

Works 100% of the time seamlessly and without pause

Now I know what took so long...

Good graphics. I’m sure I’m not getting full use of its capabilities due to sparse examples and instructions.

Geofency works great to integrate geofencing to home automation systems. I’ve been getting reliable results using it to trigger events in Homeseer for over a year. And the app has regular improvements, which is much appreciated.
